I am happy for Ingram, I thought he would run like that from day 1 this year.

Lets be honest, 1 good game in 3 years really doesn't keep that bust label away from him. Even Jamarcus Russel had a few good games. I hope Ingram Keeps running this way, even half of what he did last night would be great. Our running game rests on the shoulders of our O-line.

props to Ingram but ill still take Ivory over him any day of the week and twice on Sunday.

Before the IRvory people post, just remember in Ingram's 3 season he has only finished 1 without injury.

Stopped reading this uninformed diatribe right here.

Last two seasons
4.17 YPA (not bad at all)

Last 13 games (from when Kromer returned to O-line coach last year until now)
4.6 YPA (uhhh, pretty damn great, that is top 10 YPA in the NFL)

Please, 3.9 YPC last year and 3.9 YPC the year before that. Stats are stats lets not cherry pick to make turds smell like roses. Call it what it is Danno.

We always judge players on their most recent performances, that being said Ingram has a solid B for the season. If he keeps this type of running going, great, however that 1 game doesn't change the previous 2 years.

Seriously calling out Danno for 2.7 tenths of a yard?

I like calling Danno out. Danno is fun to go back and forth with. He isn't wrong; the period he cites 4.17 is correct. I am not debating the greatness Ingram showed us in his last performance, I just want us to temper our enthusiasm until he starts putting good games together.

And who are you to tell us how to act or think? If I want to be excited and think that Ingram can keep it up that's my right as a fan.

Totally bogus numbers though Danno , because they stopped running MI, and his stats before were not good.
Playing a horrible and injured D like the cowboys, where he didnt beat the 1st guy, and even dropped a easy pass, is not indicative of a good RB.
ATL ATT 9 yrds 11 average 1.2
TB ATT 8 yrds 20 average 2.5
NYJ ATT 4 yrds 19 average 4.8
DAL ATT 14 yrds 145 average 10.4 (OL and FB blocking for huge holes, tacked by 1st guy)

Clearly his 5.6 YPA is created by 1 game. I think his best run of the night was when he lost a yard but kept fighting and twisting, almost took 6 guys to bring him down. Thats a RB.

This is what I expect from MI. He has the same build, but I dont see the passion or ability yet. What a real RB looks like, if you have forgotten.

your not a RB unless you beat 1 guy, its that simple , and all RB's know that. Any idiot can run thru a huge hole till hes tacked. .
